Cookies, Ink, and Temptations
December slipped away like a warm blanket pulled over one’s nose: cold outside and surprisingly hot inside.
I took just a few short walks in my beautiful city, which was transformed into a surreal place by the Iwagumi art installation -Excess-. I also did a little Urbex in an abandoned factory, but that’s OK: there are so many projects to pursue and show you in the new year..
On Patreon, we played a lot and fantasised even more. Between laughter and decidedly explicit scenes, we even indulged in a few tender moments.
The month began with YCH #58, which reimagined Christmas far from traditional fairy tales. Santa Claus didn’t mind — quite the opposite, in fact. This YCH evolved into a true collective game, evolving with each request until the final reveal. It was also the last YCH of 2025, a significant milestone, and a time to express gratitude to those who continue to play with me month after month.
The November poll then gave rise to a scene that everyone agreed on: explicit, ironic, satisfying. Solaine, as always, reminded us that shared pleasure is an art form. Alongside the chosen version, I also wanted to give you my own, softer variation, conceived as a warm embrace in the dead of winter.
Between one thing and another, December also saw the return of the free sketchbook. I drew myself as a Djinn, with my fingers sunk in a watermelon, because yes: it’s December, but I’m already longing for summer. And because, let’s face it, you should never trust a Djinn who brings fruit.
A more emotional moment came with God of Fortune #64. An unexpected event turned into a shared gift, and I decided to share it with Solaine, Morgan, and Angelica in a scene of relaxation and complicity. Relaxation, friendship, and gratitude: things that always take on a special weight at the end of the year.
December was also an important month for collaborations. With JC Comics, the journey continues, solid and continuous. The cover of Ho Alone has arrived, now on Kickstarter, and it’s not an isolated incident: it’s part of a journey that will continue in the coming months.
And then there are the holidays. I love them because they’re a time for decorations, small crafts, lights on, and homemade cookies. I love baking cookies. And, of course, sneaking in a few naughty versions among the delights. My personal, majestic Christmas request.
The month ended with a few snippets from the mini-comic for Goddess Ninja, eye-catching pinups, and hidden details (yes, even the Sparklin’ in the background), as the year drew to a close.
December ends like this: with hands that smell of cookies, ideas that never stop, and the feeling that next month is already ready to tempt me.
